The video was published by Laura-Lynn Tyler Thompson. For additional context, I’ll leave it to her biography, as given on on YouTube, to speak for itself:
> Inspirational and comedic speaker, Laura-Lynn Tyler Thompson is the former co-host of The 700 Club Canada, and author of “Relentless Redemption”. Having been a keynote speaker at events with over 10,000 in attendance, her career has spanned many years in the entertainment industry; she has had the privilege of speaking with many influential men and women from Hollywood and beyond. She now hosts Laura-Lynn Live, an online-daily broadcast, bringing attention to current news and politics at this epic hour! Known as one of the most courageous women speaking out against the leftist agenda and woke culture, she believes it’s time to rise with courage, or sink with cowardice.

I always want to grab these types by the shoulder and demand specifics: do you think the greenhouse effect exists? If it does, are humans *not* increasing the GHG concentration of the atmosphere?
They are in my experience utterly unable to straightforwardly state their own world view. It’s just a mish-mash of reactive opposition to their perceived ideological enemies.

There is also an article available from **The Indo-Canadian Voice** (a local BC newspaper), [_”Rustad says climate action is “an anti-human agenda” designed to reduce world population in video”_](https://voiceonline.com/rustad-says-climate-action-is-an-anti-human-agenda-designed-to-reduce-world-population-in-video/) published on October 1st, although the CTV News article offers a more detailed analysis.
The video (“The Real Price of Progress”) where he made the claims is available on YouTube, from March 21, 2023: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gM1_aBptKI

However the biography omits mention of some details… such as her candidacy for Parliament under the People’s Party banner, as it also omits [her “prophetic” views about Maxime Bernier](https://pressprogress.ca/peoples-party-candidate-maxime-bernier-is-fulfilling-an-ancient-biblical-prophesy/). Or her work as the co-host and a speaker at [“The Great Canadian Awakening” conference in May 2023 in Whitby, Ontario](https://web.archive.org/web/20230321011112/https://www.canadianawakening.ca/), which featured [a who’s-who](https://archive.ph/lgRRp) of the Canadian anti-vax, anti-lockdown community. The name of the conference nods to the [QAnon concept of “the great awakening”](https://www.adl.org/resources/article/qanon-glossary) (_”Followers of Q believe that they are part of a vast intelligence operation designed to slowly awaken the American people to the truth about the Deep State.”_)
Anyway… [birds of a feather](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/birds_of_a_feather)!
